“I tried to be more aggressive, attack and play hard to get a win,” Teague said. “Those guys were telling me to just use my speed and get to the rim. It was working out for me tonight.”

DeMarre Carroll had a career-high 21 points for Atlanta, which has won three of four. Evan Turner scored 27 points and Tony Wroten had 22 for the Sixers, who have lost three of four.

Hawks guard Lou Williams, returning to the court for the first time since reconstructive knee surgery 10 months ago, finished with seven points, three rebounds and two assists in 16 minutes.

The Sixers were without second-leading scorer Michael Carter-Williams because of a bruised arch suffered in a loss to the Spurs on Monday. Coach Brett Brown — another former Spurs assistant — said he doubts he'll play Saturday at New Orleans or Monday at Dallas.
